Trump should concentrate on getting conservative judges appointed and breaking up as much of the bureaucracy as possible because this worthless Congress is determined to ruin every other part of his legacy.

We know the Dems are master dirt-diggers. If the “Republican Congress” is really even Republican (doubtful), many are certainly compromised and caught and thus effectively shut up/neutralized.

A very significant percentage of Republicans who hold public office are plants. Doubt that at the nation’s risk. This has been the plan for at least 7 decades.

With multiple Republican traitors aboard, the simple answer is NO.

During Zumwalt, I remember ships and subs with too many USNA grads in the wardroom ended up in drydock.

The GOP sweep of 2001-2007 led to disaster.

There is no hope through politics.

The headline should be "Is there anything ...", not "Is there nothing ...".

Reading comprehension is scarce in GOPe land.

I don't think so.

It could be rephrased in the affirmative, and keep the original word: "There is nothing republicans can't screw up.", whereas "There is anything republicans can't screw up." doesn't work.

I believe "nothing" is correct here.

This is what happens when there is poor leadership in both Houses.

Exactly.

People keep hoping that maybe this election or the next one will bring a different result. Hilarious......hahahaha.

Hope in one hand and S in the other, see which one fills up first.

"Donuts. Is there anything they can't do?" - Homer Simpson

In English.Stackexchange.com: “I don't know nothing” vs “I don't know anything" or "You can't do nothing to me" vs "you can't do anything to me" : Answer: "In proper English, the latter is correct; the former (a double negative) is sometimes used as an affectation of dialect or slang and means the same thing."

May I suggest. TChris, that we are both correct

The sooner people stop buying this “propaganda” that the Republican lead we ship are inept they need to accept that the Republican leadship are ALL NEW WORLD ORDER SOCIALISTS/COMMUNISTS.

BECAUSE IT MAKES MORE SENSE

There’s a wing in the party, Ryan, Corker, Flake, that wants Trump to fail. That’s why nothing big has been done. Before America becomes great again the party needs a cleansing. God help us.
